Merle Haggard wrote this song too. He was a great song writer as well as singer/storyteller.

[@silverdoeGirl]

Happy new year guys - thank you for all the smiles! All the best for 2024

[@lisahause8705]

My dad was a real cowboy born in Oklahoma & raised his family in Wyoming…loved Merle Haggard songs! 🤠👍🏻

[@paulelliott682]

Okie from Muskogee was a tribute to his father. It was also one of his biggest hits

[@michaelblagrave7648]

My favorite song of all time from the Hag. I had this feeling once when I was laid off and money was really tight and times were hard. But we did get through

[@lindawolf4863]

Thank you for reacting to my song request. It was popular when I was a kid and it's very meaningful. Happy New Year!

[@jeffmorse645]

This song brought tears to my eyes. Merle Haggard's family was from Oklahoma just like mine and he was raised in California's San Joaquin Valley (Bakersfield). Same for me - grew up near Modesto. My folks loved his music and it was often playing in our house. My Dad especially liked "If We Make it Through December" and was always singing it. Bittersweet memories - my parents are gone now.

[@rwschumm]

Great choice for New Year! His voice is terrific, & Very nice song! Happy New Year, You Guys... and to Your Family! :)

[@flexanimo4162]

AMBER!!! I love watching your reactions in these videos! I can tell when the lyrics hit you just right and it warms my heart! 😊😊😊

[@stevenm.6886]

I’ve worked construction 38 years, winter time has always been stressful. This song has always hit close to home, Merle was good at that

[@Jude_196]

HAPPY NEW YEAR, ROBINSON FAMILY!! THANKS for all your WONDERFUL REACTIONS throughout the year!!! HUGS to EVERYONE!!! HAPPY 2024!!!

[@mikematusek4233]

love this song. It's a pray prayed by many.

[@raymondohlsen5054]

Happy New Year!! Thank you for all of your help this year!!! You really made a difference for me. THANK YOU!! By the way, did you know that Merle Haggard did a song with Clint Eastwood? It's called "Barroom Buddies" from the 70's baby!!

[@Head-ck4hu]

This is a great example of the Bakersfield Sound. The rhythm and guitar.

[@cherylinman5873]

“Let’s Chase Each Other Around” co-written by the Hag, Merle Haggard, and sang by him would be a fun, uplifting song to do next.

[@moms2398]

When I was growing up, my dad was laid off from his factory job for several years in the early 80s. Each year, my mom would sit my sister and I down and explain that Christmas wasn't going to be as great as we might like it because Daddy wasn't working. But every year we woke to a Christmas tree full of presents! As an adult I see how Ma did it - wrapping a shirt and pants and socks and slippers and robe and pajamas in different boxes so that the space under the tree was full. Looking back, I realize that my sister and I might have had one or two toys, but we had a lot of gifts! My parents worked so hard to give us the perception of a plentiful Christmas! We were blessed. And this song reminds me of those lean years.

[@skyebird3933]

Merle was my fav country singer for all his years. 😊 Have a Happy New Year!

[@stephaniejones4749]

Happy New Year. I'm so glad I found this channel. You guys are the best! Enjoy your New Year 🎊🎉. P.S Thanks for the memories!!!

[@richard53100]

The Hag grew up 2 hours south of where I live . My Dad's favorite and he always makes me think of my late father. Always on a Mountain when I Fall, kills me every time I hear it.

[@esthercox4514]

Thanks for all the smiles, laughs, reactions, new and old music! Here's to a blessed 2024.😊😊😊🎉🎉🎉❤❤❤

[@stevenhamilton9305]

Thank you for all the smiles and laughter last year you are two great young people ❤

[@reneerocha1796]

SUCH A GREAT SONG!!! 😊❤❤❤by that handsome Merle Haggard. ❤

[@perryphillips2919]

Great video! Please keep the content coming 💯❤️ we love it!

[@thorfinsky1427]

I would love to hear "Same Old Lang Syne" by Dan Fogelberg. 🙏 HAPPY NEW YEAR GUYS!!!!! 🥳

[@7gelis]

So would I! Perfect for tonight.

[@donnakubiski5572]

I agree. I see lots of requests for it every year, but only one reactor I watch has done it.

[@dubyabee7963]

One of my favorite Merle Haggard songs. Have a Happy New Year!!

[@f150bft]

Merle's Twinkle Twinkle Lucky Star.... is a must hear....

[@Pauba1946]

I worked for the postal service for 35 years. This was always my December theme song the entire time I worked there. It is still my favorite December song.

[@user-pc4bp9ff8f]

Jeff Beck on guitar, Tal Wilkenfeld on bass and Imogen Heap singing at Ronnie Scott's in England. The song is "Blanket"

[@RhythmWalker1]

I love how 'Yal seem to love this song! It is a blessing to see you two dive into the wonderful REAL music that older generations created.

[@jodyparkercraven]

“Holding things together” is another great Hag song about a parents sacrifice.

[@robertg7396]

Happy New years Amber and Jay. I hope 2024 brings you great health and extra wealth! 😉🥂🥂

[@hellokimmy68]

Awwww...thank you! Every time you've done one of his songs, I've requested this one. Now if you want to hear a very spirited Merle, you have to do "Rainbow Stew!"

[@janhofschulte6229]

My favorite Merle song!

[@hellokimmy68]

@@janhofschulte6229 mine too! Still a very relevant message today.

[@JimLaughlan]

I just love the musical diversity here on your channel!! I'll be totally convinced if you ever react to Beethoven's "Moonlight Sonata"

[@JimLaughlan]

Movement 1 that is....

[@nozzlechief36]

Been waiting for you guys to do this Merle classic...He is the smoothest voice ever...loved it.

[@TexasMagnolia]

Merle Haggard - Always Wanting You His love song to Dolly is a must hear.

[@dsusan17]

The LEGEND that is Merle Haggard! He is in my top 5 male Country Artist of all time.

[@randyallbee1173]

Love me some Merle, thanks for all your entertaining listens guys! I don’t think you’ve ever checked out the great Guy Clark, and I would highly recommend him-one of the best singer songwriters out of Texas, known as the craftsman for his songwriting. Saw him live at the old Palms Playhouse in Davis, California many times with good friends, miss those days. So many great tunes-I’d recommend, off the top of my head, Homegrown Tomatoes, Randall Knife, The Cape…really can’t go wrong. Best buddy of Townes Van Zandt and listed as one of Bob Dylan’s favorite peer songwriters in a recent list he made in an interview, you really gotta check him out. Peace, God bless you both!

[@TammyBeth1015]

The best "not actually a Christmas song" Christmas song ever.

[@jackg.2780]

One of my favorite songs when is came out in the early 70s.

[@stevedahlberg8680]

I love all the classic Merle but like this song, he had other hits that were definitely hits at the time but it's gotten to where only fans really know them and appreciate them, but these are two more of them that I bet you guys would love. In fact, I tend to listen to them back-to-back sometimes. Sing Me Back Home Branded Man

[@Bennromansince1955]

As a matter of habit I post a song on my Facebook page every month that features that month prominently in the title or in the song. This was my choice for December, not because it was a great world class song but because it was an iconic song for that era!! And, yes, it was like him, of and for the people!

[@mikemaricle9941]

After the "great recession" we had one x-mas that we were BROKE, I have never felt so worthless in my life.

[@maxinefreeman8858]

My husband got his paycheck and pink slip about 2 weeks before Christmas in 1973. I swear this is true. What made it worse is he was a great bulldozer operator. My brother-law had started working there and he hated my husband. It was my sister's husband. He was a good friend of the mine operator. We moved in with my parents for awhile. It wasn't the end of the world. I'm sure you know that Merle was from California.

[@bellliberty7914]

My mom's favorite male country singer. This is hard to listen to she past April 3, 2023 RIP Mom I miss hearing you sing along with Merle's songs.

[@gypsyroadhog]

Happy new year guys, 23:45 here in uk…..here’s hoping you react to Slade this year 🤔 Cum on feel the Noize being a popular one, covered by your QR in the 80’s

[@raymondohlsen5054]

Happy New Year UK!!!

[@dawnrosecrants8919]

Happy new year guys. Thanks for all the great music. 👍❤️🎷🎸

[@stevedahlberg8680]

I have loved this guy forever.

[@sherigrow6480]

My mom's favorite performer, so the music i grew up with. Thanks for doing this one,

[@JANETTE74576]

Please listen to, "What Have You Got Planned Tonight Dianna?" It is yet another side of mighty Merle.

[@charliefisher4044]

Merle is my all time favorite! I fell in love with him with I was little girl.

[@michaelkrummel2071]

I read once that when Johnny Cash recorded Folsom Prison Blues, Merle Haggard was in the audience as a prisoner, and that concert change his life. This my favorite Merle Haggard song.

[@l-bird]

I still got 6 1/2 more hours left before I make it through December, ha. I can't wait til this year ends. Hope you all have a wonderful 2024!

[@wayneumbach9413]

Happy New Year to you both. This is the country music I grew up with, and still love listening to.

[@SweetThing]

Merle Haggard, the original "Okie from Muskogee" (check that song out by Merle). Country music legend Merle Haggard died on April 6, 2016, at his home in the San Joaquin Valley, California, after a brief battle with pneumonia, so he did make it through December.. and moved to California. He died on his 79th birthday. The beloved country star recorded more than three dozen No. 1 hits in his musical career, which spanned six decades from the 1960s into the 2010s. Haggard actually predicted he would die on his birthday, according to his son, Ben Haggard. RIP Merle.

[@BobbyArnold-ri4nz]

He was great and he was for the working man

[@jameswalker6977]

You need to watch his 3 Son's they all sound like him. Also he did an impression of Marty Robins that was spot on. Love watching your Reactions.

[@rajvader]

History lesson for younger folks... It's a good thing we had great music and movies in the '70s, 'cause a lot of other things were awful. A series of economic recessions, high inflation, unemployment, crime rates, divorce rates, etc. This song resonated deep then...

[@andymageen5308]

Do you realize that there are now RSR members from every time zone across the world, there’s goin to be 24 hours of celebrating this channel and all the smiles you create on planet Earth. Happy New Year to everyone ✌️

[@helindove2237]

Yep, you are right! I’m already having breakfast now on the 1st of January. Happy New Year! I come here every day for a dose of good music and positivity and the irresistible smiles of these two. We are blessed! 😊

[@jonwilley9548]

Another great Merle Haggard song. Duet with Janie Fricke. Please try “Natural High”. Happy New Year!

[@GranpaMike]

My wife's been playing the heck out of this song, lately... so funny to find it here, today! Wow, didn't realize I've been listening to this for 50 years. I must be getting kinda old, huh?

[@kittykaleidoscope434]

I went to school with a couple of his kids. The top story of his house was a huge trainset. In reality his kids had nothing to worry about financially. He did live in Cali.rip Hag..Happy New Year Amber and Jay🎉❤😊🥂🎆

[@bradsense7431]

Check out a great version of this song that The Issacs performed on a Merle Haggard tribute program. They have an all star band playing behind them as well. Video can be found on YT channel Country Roads.

[@ronspalding6946]

Happy Hogmanay from Edinburgh, Scotland. Hope you all have a fantastic 2024.

[@maryann9226]

Great song. Merle Haggard died on his birthday. R.I.P. 🙏 Happy New Year everyone.

[@elizabethfranco1284]

One of his best, also great is Mama’s Hungry Eyes.

[@blocker1928]

You two are terrific! I love the music reactions that you put out. Much of the music that you're experiencing and commenting on brings back fond memories from my childhood. 🙂

[@sharonnelson6031]

Happy New Year everybody 🎉🎉

[@robertwatson2823]

Happy New Years guys!! Big City is another great song by Merle.

[@paulguthrie4857]

I LOVE Hag. "Tonight the Bottle Let Me Down" is one of my favorites "Reasons to Quit" w/Willie Nelson is another great one...but it's Hag....none of it's gonna be bad

[@tomsa123456]

The Country Nightingale - Merle Haggard!

[@TheRavenshaddock]

This is a heartbreaker

[@you2449]

OmiLord - - How'd I Miss This One !!!!?? This Song has gotten me thru many a year end !!

[@jeffreycollins7252]

He could imitate many singers like Johnny Cash, Marty Robbins and many more.

[@rodwestonable]

It's been great seeing Jordan learn to love country music!

[@kimberlyosborne1977]

I don't know if you know this but Merle was in prison when Johnny Cash performed there and it inspired him to get out and change his life become a singer.

[@kentjarvis3328]

Dang Jay, keep working out buddy. I worked out for 20 years. I had to stop because of a back injury. I loved and I've watched your progress. You're rocking it!

[@mimigina7439]

Happy New Year to Amber and Jay. Thanks for all your reactions this past year. Love y’all 😊

[@zorak1704]

I was four years old when this came out. I grew up with Hee Haw and 1970s country music.

Daddy Daddy Frank daddy Frank is yeah. It's it's a moral haggard I'll route daddy frank song

[@randymoore8336]

You guys might want to go down the rabbit hole and check him out!! He did wonderful impersonations.

[@dalekarraker6851]

Merle Haggard actually did time in prison and his humility comes through in his music. Listen to "Pancho and Lefty" which is a duet with Willie Nelson. Another great one by Haggard is "Red Bandana". Happy New Year!

[@lauriebarrett6789]

I'd recommend checking out The Petersens bluegrass cover of "If We Make It Through December". I'd also recommend their covers of "Bohemian Rhapsody", "Take Me Home Country Roads", "Mama Mia", "Top Of The World", "Jolene".

[@smd2169]

Happy New Year RobSquad!

[@LaptopLarry330]

If the both of you are driving to Indiana for a cheerleading competition, when there is snow on the road, don’t drive faster than 25 miles per hour. Also, plan to DOUBLE the amount of time it will take to get from Point A to Point B. Thirdly, don’t let your gas tank get below half-full. If you end up snowbound, you will need to run your engine to operate the heater for 10 minutes per hour. If the temperature gets below 20 degrees Fahrenheit, run the engine and heater every 20 to 30 minutes per hour, and make sure that the exhaust pipe is not blocked up by snow and/or ice. Also, have some extra blankets and “ready to eat” food, such as crackers, cookies, bread, and canned ham, SPAM, canned corned beef, and Underwood’s Deviled Ham or Chicken Spread, and sardines

[@SnowEfaust]

Your smiles bring me smiles!! BLESSINGS for your New Year!!🎉🎉😊🎉🎉

[@tomaroni6670]

Marla Haggard...another Arkansas Treasure...did you know Merle cared nothing about stardom, he just loved to write and sing his songs..."Class of 76"...Did you hear that Dolly covered Stairway to Heaven? Haven't heard it but was told she did great...

[@futurereflections4097]

My favorite new years song is “Long December” by The Counting Crows
